Startups in 2022 were able to transform the way people live, learn, and work, with data playing a critical role in delivering transformative experiences. The increasing importance of data access versus data governance is creating a conflict that startups are working to solve, with solutions like Satori enabling organizations to accelerate their data use while ensuring compliance with security and privacy requirements. Additionally, startups are leveraging technologies like IoT, AI, VR, and NLP to deliver game-changing solutions for application developers and users, such as Qubitro's IoT solution and Concured's AI-powered marketing platform. Low- and no-code platforms like Alloy Automation and Thunkable are also helping entrepreneurs breathe life into their ideas without access to developer talent. The MongoDB for Startups program is supporting these startups with free credits, technical advice, co-marketing opportunities, and access to a vast partner network.
